Machu Picchu
Machu Pichu is the most beautiful and impressive ancient Inca ruins in the world. In 1911, the Inca ruin was rediscovered by Hawaiian historian Hiram after it lay hidden for centuries above the Urubamba Valley. From the ground, the “Lost City of the Incas” is completely invisible.
Surrounded by agricultural terraces and watered by natural springs, the city is completely self-contained. Even though the city was known locally, it was largely unknown to the outside world before being rediscovered in 1911. Machu Picchu has become the most important tourist attraction in Peru since then.
